We invite you to visit us in the Volkswagen showroom for our Electric Showcase, Saturday 11th - Sunday 19th November. Our electric and plug-in hybrid range will be on display, including the ID.4, ID.5 and Golf GTE, plus a special guest: KEV the Kombi.
Meet KEV, the Kombi Electric Vehicle. An OG. A real one. A 1966 Kombi with all the magic we remember, from its split-screen sliding door, to its shining Volkswagen badge. A past life on the open road as a vehicle for the Dunedin Health Board, we’re now breathing new life into this classic by transforming it into an electric vehicle. Fully repowered from fossil fuels to clean energy, KEV is leading the way in Volkswagen’s shift to a more sustainable future – a future that’s better for the flowers, and the rest of us. Something the original KEV would be proud of.
Sure, KEV has a new engine. But he hasn’t forgotten his roots or lost a bit of that classic Kombi charm.
Fact #1
KEV’s batteries are fully recycled from past Volkswagen projects, like the e-Golf.
Fact #2
The Kombi was originally designed on a napkin. However, KEV’s design wasn’t quite so simple…
Fact #3
The Kombi graced album covers alongside the likes of Bob Dylan, and The Beach Boys. KEV is open to any electronic music collabs.
Visit us at the showroom this week to see KEV along with our three newest electric & plug-in hybrid vehicles on display: The ID.4, ID.5 and Golf GTE. We look forward to seeing you there!
